Is anyone on here favouring Roarke over Mitch?

Mitch still having issues with foot and needs to be managed in VFL.
Re: Always Right Match Committee Thread Round 17, Vs Melbourne
That's right I forgot he's on a strict load program and seeing how it comes up.

Champing as I said is now obsolete.
Linguistics are cool and often finds its own form. This phrase being a case in point. Having been said wrongly for so long it has now evolved into an accepted reworking of it.
R. Smith out
T. Liberatore in (won't happen). But if Tom plays VFL he should be playing AFL. He doesn't need touch or match fitness. He plays AFL or is rested again hopefully.
Having 1eyedog as our in house linguist all goes well for the future of the English language on WOOF.
Re: Always Right Match Committee Thread Round 17, Vs Melbourne
Bench ins are
- Rhylee West,
- Bailey Dale,
- Dale Morris,
- Lachie Young
None named on the ground so no clear indicator of a change yet. West first named on the bench though.
Re: Always Right Match Committee Thread Round 17, Vs Melbourne
Whether it is this week or not, I can't wait to see Rhylee get a guernsey.
I think Morris might have to wait another week. It might've been different if Tom McDonald hadn't injured himself.
Roarke is the only one that I think might be teetering a bit in the minds of the MC, but my gut says they give him another week to perform.
Re: Always Right Match Committee Thread Round 17, Vs Melbourne
I'd go with no change.
These games are the type we have dropped in the past. With the fightback jumper we really need to get the group fired up for a big one.

I agree. These games, coming off the high, and where we’re not the underdog, are ones we have trouble with.
I’m eager to see whether we’ve developed mentally to put away this type of game, and if so it should put us in an exciting position to finish off the season well.

Yep. I’m worried. Plus all these articles talking us up. Recipe for disaster.

I'll take that as tongue in cheek my 11 year old is more articulate than me.
The Dees are more formidable than people think and are starting to get a few back, Jetta and Lever are underdone but both are very good players. We'll need to bring our A game or at least our B+ game to beat this mob.
Re: Always Right Match Committee Thread Round 17, Vs Melbourne
Not sure why but I’m concerned about this one far more than last week. Viney and Jones really set them selves for us and generally play well against us. We curb them two we win simple as that
Re: Always Right Match Committee Thread Round 17, Vs Melbourne
We have good form but it's 50/50 as far as I'm concerned. Taking my daughter to her first game. Hopefully we can get across the line.
Re: Always Right Match Committee Thread Round 17, Vs Melbourne
West McLean Williams and Morris should be the bench imo. What Roarke Smith, Bailey Dale and Lachie Young have done lately escapes me. Lachie Young shows potential however Bailey Dale doesn't perform when he gets elevated and you are only as good as your last game and Roarke's was a non event. When Dale Morris runs onto the ground it should and will inspire every player and supporter.
